Only time will tell.... did I make a "good deal"
Ordered this... $303 shipped out the door

There's a thread on Pirate about these, mostly favorable initial impressions, although there hasn't been any definitive testing, just impromptu pulls.
*edit* Apparently some 4wd publication did some testing and the cable failed at 9k+ pounds, before any other problems were experienced. If you look around there are several writeups in various forums. Most are blocked from my office, so I'll have to hear the good/bad news later.*edit*
Had the money set aside for the M8000, but at this price I can get the synthetic winch line and hawse for the same total price.
Won't have it mounted for a while, had to ship it to the fam. I'll be home in Oct for a wedding and I'll strip the wire and fairlead out so it'll make USPS weight restrictions to ship here.
Ciao
